ACThey'll preserve themselves at all costs, not out of some notion of 'public duty', but out of the insane delusions (about the supposed importance of their own 'noble' blood and 'destiny') that blight Epstein's wits.

The first priority of royalty, *always*, is to preserve their own institution, no matter the cost. I could give you a *long* list of examples, even from WWII.
That is the goal of any form of government; monarchy, democracy, autocracy, theocracy, etc. Don't you think it a little strange to single out one form for such an accusation, when it applies to all forms? I can hardly fault the Queen for wanting to hang on to her job any more than I can fault Blair and Labour for wanting to hold on to theirs.
I honestly regard them as a parasite on modern society (just like 'State' religions) - and they ensure the continued existence of the inevitable rabble of lesser hereditary leeches.
